 Easy to prepare.
Pot with fresh water on the fire. Let the water boil. When it's boiling put salt and then the pasta. Wait until the pasta is "al dente" and then dry the pasta. Put back the pasta in the pot without water and include the tomato sauce.
Control the fire and the cooking until it's ready. Serve with cheese on top and a good glass of wine.

I really think that you could have done less preparation, like not opening the pasta bag and tomato can ;)

The photo is too matted for my taste and the lighting on the tomato guts is a bit too harsh. But nice composition.

A good in the process pic. I think a nice green instead of yellow countertop background would make the pasta stand out more.
